The first hand, I'd be very tempted to call that turn bet. $2.50 to win $13 and you know if either an Ace or Queen hits you've most likely got the hand won and it's not all that unlikely he's got you beat here either. He's playing 70% of hands - you're crushing his range the majority of the time with AQ. On top of that, you're in position.

I came across a 50/32 the other day who was willing to get it in with A high and middle pair on the flop multiple times. He'd bet the pot or over the pot with nothing. This player is making tiny bets in comparison to the pot every time. He looks full of shit to put it bluntly.

But idk. To me it feels like your 3 bet with the AQ is a little ridiculous. I think personally I just call the re raise. Because I feel like the majority of the time if he calls your 3 bet Your not in amazing shape unless he's capable of calling you with A 10/AJ or some baloney like that. I would say more often than not he has pocket 10's or something along that line and he's stringing u along because he's afraid u will fold. In the second hand, again I'm not a fan of the re raise pre flop. U need to think about what you're looking to accomplish by making that Re raise What will he call u with? For these reasons I think it is -EV in the long run to make that Re raise Most of the time I Just flat his raise and see what the flop brings and probably check fold if I miss.

First hand: This guy's a ridiculous lag so 4bet might be fine, but I'd just minraise his 3bet to discourage anyone else from coming along. Also don't fold turn because in a 4bet pot a random blank 4 bricked even this guy's range plus he's giving you ridiculous lol odds. If his range is PP + draws you have 31% equity and you just need to be good 23% of the time to call. Folding is flushing money down the drain.

Second hand: Just minraise or like 2.5x in position. You're far ahead of his range and you're primarily looking to get more money in pot while you're good, plus place more Ax type hands you dominate in his range.

Check/calling is fine on the turn, you're probably not getting a fold and a raise will likely induce a bluff. Turn is also a call because you just have to be good 38% of the time and the only thing that has you crushed here is AK (which has you drawing to 3 outs for a chop) and sets (which have you drawing dead. You have 9 outs vs QJ/T/6, 11 vs Qx and 12 vs JT/J6/T6, plus he could easily have KJ, maybe one worse Jack like J9, and given his stats he could have a nontrivial amount of total air.

Basically, faced with anything less than a ridiculous massive overbet that you still cover, your first instinct should not be to check/fold unless your range is super weak. You don't need to win it that often to call most bets. And versus a hyperlag you honestly are just good enough with 2nd pair very very often. Q9+ would actually be a ship.

ignore that, misread hand!

AQ hand you can probably just 4bet shove all in vs retards like this, either that or 4bet bigger and get stacks in on any flop
